4. Engage in frequent collaboration related to planning, instruction, and assessment directly connected to student learning with both grade level homeroom teachers and the Spanish Department.
5. Observe and evaluate student’s work and progress, providing regular feedback to students. Instruct students both individually and in group, adapting teaching methods to meet students’ varying needs, interests, and learning styles.
